See, to me, I see this as a reason TO use remote images. If you embed them
in the message, the user downloads them whether they want them or not,
unless they have a client set to partially download large messages.

If you use remote images, the user can download their mail, go offline, read
it, and if they WANT the images, connect in and get them. We havent forced
them down their metered connection by embedding them.

IMHO, that gives the user the option, depending on their circumstances. We
aren't making the decision for them.

Your mileage varied long, long ago, in a galaxy far away, of course....
